A Frozen Flower
dir : Ha Yu2008/ South Korea / 133 min Korean with English subtitles The sleeper hit of the 2010 Toronto Inside Out Film Festival makes its epic bisexual blockbuster bow on the Kingston screen. At the end of the Goryeo Dynasty, an ambitious king trains young men to become his royal guards in the hope of fending off political manipulation and military threats from the Yuan dynasty. Star student Hong Lim grows up to become the chief of the guards, and also the king's secret lover. As the Yuan emperor attempts to gain hold of more power by leveraging the lack of a royal heir, the king gives Hong Lim the irrefutable order -to make love to his queen! Pursuing his love affairs with both the king and the queen, Hong Lim finds himself erotically and emotionally torn. When the king catches Hong Lim and the queen in amorous throes, the kingdom turns upside down, bringing chaos and violence. With edge of your seat action, steamy sex, elaborate sets and lavish costumes, this is a film you won't want to miss on the big screen. Followed by at 10pm EPIC MOVIE MASQUERADE at The Renaissance Event Venue (285 Queen Street). What better way to celebrate after an epic blockbuster than to host our own blockbuster masquerade gala complete with music, song, dance and delicious treats from our friends at Pan Chancho, Sleepless Goat and The Renaissance. Walk the red carpet as a famous or perhaps infamous movie character or perhaps just as your inner diva superstar! Prizes for Best Costume! Admission to the opening gala is inclusive with your ticket stub from A Frozen Flower or $15 at the door.
